GXY

The GXY project focuses on the molecular design and genetic programmability of collagen polypeptides produced biotechnologically by recombinant protein synthesis in a bioreactor. Through the use of RNA and DNA sequencing, machine learning and molecular simulation, advances in the molecular biology of repetitive sequences and the further development of industrially used fibre spinning processes, GXY aims to develop a biocompatible collagen-containing fibre optimised for textile applications for the first time.
